Adventist History | The Trumpets and the Little Book (Part 2)

Uncover the early Adventist understanding of the first four trumpets in Revelation 8. Trace the historical interpretations linking the Goths (Alaric), Vandals (Genseric), Huns (Attila), and the fall of the Western Roman Empire (Odoacer) to these prophetic symbols as God’s judgments. Understand the historicist lens used by pioneers like Uriah Smith and James White, contrasting it with Jesuit-originated futurism and preterism, and see how these events fit into the great prophetic timeline.
